The transition to Ignition Spec 3 with 4.6 creates a
discontinuity. Some users want to update their bootimages,
e.g. for a cluster originally provisioned as 4.4 but upgraded
in place to 4.6, it should be possible to directly use RHCOS 4.6
bootimages for new workers.
In some cases in fact, this could be required for things like
adding a node with newer hardware.
The main stumbling block here is the pointer ignition config.
Since
openshift-installalready includes Ignition bits, let'sadd translation capability here using
https://github.com/coreos/ign-converter
the same as the MCO uses.
